A 20x20 area is 400 square feet. For a 2-inch top layer you would need about 2.5 cubic yards (roughly 3–4 tons); for a 4-inch base expect about 5 cubic yards (roughly 7 tons). These are estimates—use our material calculator or call us for a tailored recommendation based on the material and how you plan to build the driveway.

Suppliers sell construction-grade materials, so it is very unlikely you will receive gems, gold, or valuable river rocks in a standard load. If you are interested in prospecting or decorative found stones, seek local rockhounding groups or specialty suppliers rather than bulk construction loads. For projects, focus on the material's performance and appearance rather than potential valuables.

Consider function first: well-draining projects generally use angular, free-draining materials; driveways need material that compacts well for a stable base; landscaping or decorative areas can use washed or colored options for appearance. Because local geology affects color and texture, review supplier specs and samples for gravel, sand, dirt, stone and contact our team for help matching a material to your project needs.

No—natural materials vary by region, so color and texture may differ from photos. Suppliers source locally for Clay County, so expect variations that reflect the area's geology. If color or texture is important, request photos or samples from your supplier and add notes to your order before checkout.

Standard delivery is typically 2+ business days, and next-day delivery is available for orders placed before noon CST for an additional fee.

You can choose a delivery date at checkout, but exact timing cannot be guaranteed.

Drivers may be able to perform limited tailgate spreading at their discretion; request this service at checkout and the driver will assess safety and feasibility on arrival. There are no guarantees for spreading, so plan for a separate spreading crew or tools if you need a precise finish. Clear the drop area, mark the intended location, and note any access constraints before delivery.

Use this quick method: cubic yards = (area in sq ft x depth in inches) / 324. Then multiply cubic yards by about 1.4 to estimate tons (this is a typical average; actual weight varies by material). These figures are planning estimates—use our online calculator or contact us for a more accurate calculation for your specific material.

Contact our team as soon as possible—the sooner we hear from you, the more likely we can accommodate changes before the order is processed. Modifications depend on supplier and truck scheduling, so we cannot guarantee all changes. If there is an issue with delivery or material, reach out to customer service and we will work to resolve it.
